True to Scale, haiku ACEO



This is an original, one-of-a-kind mixed-media collage ACEO ("Art Card, Edition and Original").

Metallic, interference, pearlescent, and iridescent acrylic; metallic pigment; iridescent medium; gloss varnish; and cut paper on 140 lb Canson watercolor paper.

Bright blue handmade paper with metallic gold leaf design is adhered to the back of the card (each back is quite different). The back is initialed and dated by the artist.

3.5 x 2.5 inches
(standard ACEO size) with rounded corners.

The cut-paper haiku reads:

stars and star-systems,
Nature works true to scale,
trees, birds and fishes
